Over the past few years I've been unsatisfied with the various network devices I've implemented at home for backups and shared files. I LOVE the idea of an easily configurable server that is expandable and that provides a central administration point for all the home network chores.

Yeah, I could have knocked something like WHS together myself, but I'm lazy and I have limited time. The wife already rolls her eyes and tells me I'm not allowed more than 6 hours of computer love on a weekend.
